We use electricity in almost every part of our lives. The understanding of electricity, how it works and how we can harness it is a crucial component of elementary science curriculum. Our school is building a maker space and one of the key elements in this new space will be circuits.
By having the ability to explore with circuits, students can get a hands-on experience of electrical currents. Students will be able to tinker with circuits in a safe environment. Additionally, students will practice their problem-solving skills in order to solve questions and puzzles. The trial-and-error experience of solving problems on their own helps students build their confidence. They learn skills that will help them in adulthood as well as gain crucial critical thinking skills.
